Most of the talk surrounding the Los Angeles Lakers over the past couple of days has been how they plan on filling out the rest of their roster.
Currently, they have three players under contract for next season.
Anthony Davis, LeBron James and Kyle Kuzma. Keep in mind that the Lakers are also still paying Luol Deng‘s stretch salary. The Lakers successfully cleared about $32 million for a max salary player.
Honestly, if the Lakers weren’t still having to shell out around $5 million for Luol Deng’s dead contract, the Lakers would have a max salary slot regardless of Anthony Davis refusing to waive his $4 million trade kicker.
